    The joke is taking “strongly typed” literally- by applying too much “strength” (force) physically on the keys and breaking the keyboards

        I feel stupid, too, but while I understood the part about strong=banging on the keys, but I have idea what a “strongly typed” language would be otherwise.

        Edit: there is a helpful comment below. Thanks!

      I thought it was because the protagonist isn’t familiar with strongly typed languages so that he get frustrated so much and he breaks his keyboards to let the rage out.
